having trouble finding a replacement anywhere. I see places listing the official s-pen holder which includes a spare s-pen but no one has any stock.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] naimmkassim:
Looks like the s pen is not so good quality. Im sure going to look after mine carefully ;(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] naimmkassim:

I got a toshiba tablet pen a couple of weeks ago, it works a treat and it's nicer to write with a full size pen...

I don't have enough posts here to send a link, but if you search amazon uk for B000FG68FA it should work.

Also, the eraser on the other end of the pen works.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Axelsbusa:
Same same,

White 9220.. and i thought it was because i have a Chinese one lol.....

push the glass and never saw the back of the pen fly that high:D

Made sure that the position is correct so it still worked on the note.... then lot of 3 second super glue....

now i can relax and push the pen thru my glass:p

[Atrix 4G General] ECimet:
Hi,

I recently purchased a German retail Atrix with the following SW:

- System: Version.4.4.20.MB860.Retail.en.DE

- Android: 2.2.2

- Baseband: N_01.95.00R

- Webtop: OSHWT_U1_6.61.18

- Kernel: 2.6.32.9

- Build: OLYEM_U4_4.2.0

Has anyone successfully unlocked the bootloader for this build and flashed custom ROMs? I haven't been able to find any threads related to this particular build so I'm not sure if I should try to use the IHOP method from the [Pudding] Thread.

Also, is there a stock SBF file for this particular build in case of a soft brick?

Thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] Twist79:
Aber Hallo!

I have unlocked a german (Amazon) Atrix.

Pudding works without Problems.

newest CWM Romracer

Cyanogen Mod Weekly 3 + gapps

faux123 v0.2.2 Enhanced Stock Kernel, Max @ 1.0 GHz

German 1.100 Radio.

Every Rom with Faux Unified Kernel works without Problems, at least not without more Problems than anyone else. I recommend Cyanogen Mod Weekly 3 right now.

As for the backup SBF...

I think there is a limit to the first 100 buyers, however I just bought this a few minutes ago and it worked.
[Epic 4G General] svcbadass:
Ok so I know every one has a different reason for why they like a certain rom.

We have great devs here I have tried the following

Legendary

Acs

Clean Gb

All of them rock and are all different as they are similar.

If you have tried more than one tell me why you stuck with it over the others.

I know the hardcore ACs and Legendary ppl will vote for theirs but only chime in if you have tried more than one. even if the other is not on my list..

Maybe this discussion will help me choose and maybe help other also.

I personally like the "close to stock" roms...don't get me wrong I've done my fair share of flashing to the "extreme" but there doesn't seem to be many headaches with the "close to stock roms" ....just my ¢2

stepped out for a while and back in

I stepped out for a while and am trying to update my phone. I am so out I do not know how active the forum has been . This is exactly the information I am looking for and am still going to try to dig up . I hope that there is such a thread and that is why this did not take. . .or maybe that the forums are so bustling that there are no less than productive awesomeness going on behind the curtains. . .or hopefully because of the holiday or something because it would be a shame if such a useful thread died a lonely death because there was no evaluating releases thread.

Have no idea. . .just hoping it is as easy to find as the OP intended . . .if not i hope I come back after I was forced to find this info on my own.

I would love some non loyalist (or even loyalists to some extent but not flooding) thread like this.

Thanks OP for at least trying.

Edit: Ok . . .so maybe I was a bit premature in my . . . . .rant. Sorry if this is the case.
[Epic 4G General] vwags:
I ran Legendary 4.0.1 since it was released and found it to lack nothing. I just switched to ACS 5.1 because the list of mods fit more with my preferences as well as I like the theme better.
[Epic 4G General] fastmikey1969:
Running legendary rom since v3 or so. Why? cause everything just seems to work.

For the theme, I flashed ics v1 on top of legendary rc1 and everything seems to work ok.
[Epic 4G General] quick99si:
It's tough to find a rom with ACS/Legendary features that uses a no-theme approach like the clean GB rom. I'm on Legendary pre-RC because of the theming... and yes, I understand a different one can be flashed on top of it, but this seems to cause more problems than not from experience.

Anyone here remember Energy roms from the WM days? The cook offered them in no less than 6-10 flavors at a time with different kernel builds, homescreen utilities, themes, etc. Is this the only way to please both the "stock look high performance" and "themeed complete rom" crowds?
[Epic 4G General] Fire n mage:
Not sure if you call this an EI22 Rom but çm7 is rocking my phone as we speak. I also liked starsky rom very reliable and great performance. CPK's Urban Tom is great yet there seems to be A ram leak which cause freezing. Not sure of the cause though, not blaming cpk or the IAP kernel though w/o proof.
[Epic 4G General] metalblaster:
personally i use ICS 5.5 and CM7 because With the devs for ACS i know im in good hands. If a bug arises they fix it almost immediately. As for why i use CM7 thats not even a question IMO. It is the fastest rom you can put on this phone, and the only reason i have a backup rom is for when I need to use things that CM7 cant do simply because they havent been added yet (the number is getting smaller quickly.). I also would recommend trying out CompKids rom because it is a work of art. He tends to not update as much as a lot of the other roms but thats simply because there are a lot of other projects he is working on. But whats great about it is that it has tweaks and code that no other roms have. If you really want a stock feel though i think its safe to stick with Legendary Rom or even just Clean GB. Ive tryed both and though they lacked the theme customization I wanted they were incredibly stable and fast.
[Epic 4G General] dohturdima:
I was running Legendary Rom since switching from ACS Frozen Froyo rom. For some reason, the last two versions of Legendary did not agree with my Epic as there was a significant rotation lag. I switched over to ACS ICS for that reason, found that it resolved my rotation lag issue, liked the theme but most importantly all the functions I need to work work with ICS. CM7 still does not have WiMax working, which I use from time to time so it won't be flashed until then (run CM7 on my Nook Color).

Energy was as best as you got on WM. I liked the choices you had as far as the UI. But nothing beats Android OS in my mind.
[Epic 4G General] the_dark_knighton:
I'm running SleeperROM for its stability and excellent battery life. It's a little bland as far as looks go, but I will sacrifice looks for performance. But I have put the nebula theme over it, and laid down Roboto font. This thing is a beast!
[Epic 4G General] TexasLTE:
Clean GB or ck23 UrBan Precision X

Clean GB is great stable and close to stock ROM ... ck23 UrBan is great if you like some cool theming on your ROM ;)
[Epic 4G General] Skunk Ape1:
I loaded the legendary rom which was very stable but very stock looking. I enjoy having something a little different. I am now running ACS ICSv5.1 with the honeycomb fusion theme. I love it!
[Epic 4G General] Dsparil:
So far using stock OTA EI22 is the worst smart phone experience I've ever had. Did they even test this before releasing it?

As for the roms I usually flash... I like roms that is closet to stock as possible due to liking the stock widgets and stock apps. The only stock app that annoys me is nascar, sprint football, hd games store, Asphalt 5, and Telenav.

I'll probably be switching over to CM once all the bugs are squished, and I'll end up buying launcher pro plus for the widgets (I've heard they're really high quality).

EI22 is likely the last major update for our phones, and anything other than bug fixes is out of the question. If we are lucky, we'll get an official bug fix to EI22.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4100142:
Okay, here's my issue: I dread the soft keyboard Samsung has applied, and I simply want to use the original Android keyboard, as I have grown accustomed to it. Switching to the original keyboard and then perform a RAM wipe when **** gets sluggish, the system always reverts back to the Samsung keyboard.

Freezing the Samsung keyboard in Titanium Backup doesn't seem to fix it, as it's still available under the language settings, as well as the quick keyboard changer widget thingy on the status bar. Thus, the system tries to revert back to the Samsung keyboard, but since it's been frozen, no keyboard pops up.

So, my question is, is there any way to entirely remove every resemblance of the Samsung keyboard, or just un-grey the selection fields under language options, so that I can choose which keyboards the system should use?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] btentusscher:
After reading a lot of reviews and discussions about the Galaxy Note it was time to see and feel the Note in real life today. I went to a quiet gsm shop and took my time comparing the Note to the GS2 and the Iphone 4s. I'm an Iphone user for almost 4 years and a happy camper most of the times, until the Iphone 5 didn't show..... First impression of the Note: huge, slim and.....huge! Time to play around with it and check out the whole "pentile-retina-rgb story. Conclusion: Iphone 4s best screen quality, followed bij the Note and the S2. White is kind of blue on the Note and you can see the pentile "frames". Black is wow, colours nice, but the white.....pitty..... Then the scrolling/pinching experience on the Note (better on the S2): a lot of lag, not very fluid speedwise. The browsing experience is a totally different story, you can just read a whole website on the Note without scrolling and pinching most of the time. This is an amazing experience and unmatched by any other phone. But still........ I'm more confused after today.....which one to take.... There is no perfect phone, no complete package, compromises all the time. Waiting for the S3 is no option, Galaxy Nexus no match, streamlining the Note with updates like ICS is no holy grail.....

Now time for a nice diner and maybe you guys can give me some headrest....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Kibosh3:
iPhone is solid (too much so)

Galaxy S2 is quick and sleek

Note has a beautifully large display (primarily for browsing)

your choice...only a matter of time before updates comes out for the note to make it as responsive as the rest... i'll stick with my note
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] biggy83:
To fix the color issue you faced:

1. Go to "Settings"

2. "Display"

3. "Screen Mode"

4. Select the best one for you. I love "Dynamic" since the colors are rich and warm. "Standard" and "Movie" are kind of bluish which might explain the problem you have.

You will never see such detail and options on any iPhone. ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] frostering:
Let the Note get Cyanogen or ICS.. Will be awesome (until Samsung launch SG3 in four months)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Viamonte:
Beyond the contrast options, you must take into account, for the lag, the fact that Android is customizeable, and the best user experience may not be the stock one. Also, shop phones may have several amounts of crap installed and misconfigured in it that a stock phone will not come with.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] biggy83:
Agree with you on the last bit.

I was one of the first few people to try the Galaxy Note in my local Samsung Shop and it was smooth as butter. I bought mine and after loading with many apps it is still running as smooth as any iPhone can be, if not better. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] btentusscher:
Thnx for the replies guys. I tested the different `screen modes`and the saturation of the colours changed indeed, except the white balance. It remained `blueish`. Do you recognize this phenomenon? I really hope the lag will disappear with updates like the 2.3.6 one, because the model in the shop was stil on 2.3.5. Because of the lag I miss the `in control` sensation.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Ziplomatic:
Hey "Biggy83"!

Could please share the street price(lowest) for the Note in Dubai or Sharjah??

It will be a real help!!

I stay in Abu Dhabi :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ik911:
2.3.6 has no lag
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] epicfailguy2:
Yes whites are bluyish (colder) on samoled screens, but you only notice it when you put a hotter screen nearby (iphone 4s is hot white). Try spending 10 minutes browsing on the note or S2 without looking at any other white screen nearby and your brain will register white as white...

I'm not joking.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Techvir:
Not until it will have a 5.3 inch screen. Cant go lower now :o
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] btentusscher:
Maybe you´re completely right about the white. I´m a bit of a hifi guy and listened to many different high end speakers and amplifiers in my life. You get the same problem in that situation because you are comparing too much. It´s about the details that come to light next to each other, but completely disappear when you take them apart. Sound is emotion, and eyesight is not far away. Maybe the solution is to just buy the damn thing and see what happens. Discussing about it is also nice though....hehe

ps I´m from the netherlands, so forgive me for my english.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] 5150Joker:
Super AMOLED always has worse whites than regular LCD panels, its also less bright, that's a given. If I had to liken Super AMOLED to any TV technology it would be high end plasma tvs. They also have awesome blacks and color but their white levels are below LCD tvs. However, the trade off is that you don't get ugly gray screens during black scenes and in the case of AMOLED, black levels are infinite as is the contrast ratio (thus giving you more "pop" in your images). So it more than makes up for the lesser brightness vs LCDs like those found in iPhone 4s.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] maxh:
My Note's screen is brighter than just about every other phone I've had, which were mostly LCDs.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] AdzUK:
I owned an iP4 since launch day and had it for over a year then switched to the S2, and now I have a Note. I agree with you that the iP4 has the overall best screen quality, but it's a shame you have to zoom into almost everything since it is so tiddly. :p

True.

Having only been using Android for 2-3 months now, first on the S2 and currently on the Note, at this point in time I believe I will never go back to iOS.

It is indeed about compromises, and the Note ticks FAR more boxes for my requirements, hence it is a no brainer over an iPhone. Once you start using the beast of a screen you can't go back to an iPhone, even my S2 feels so small now. :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jimmy34742:
My SII is so responsive it could take an eye out, but my Note is still laggy enough to be bothersome with 2.3.6.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] 5150Joker:
Galaxy Note's max brightness is about 429 cd/m^2 vs 654 cd/m^2 for the iPhone 4s. That's a huge difference and thus backs up what I said.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] maxh:
So because one LCD phone you had has a higher brightness than one AMOLED phone, it makes sense to say that it's a given that LCDs are brighter than AMOLEDs... Right... Are you a scientist?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] 5150Joker:
Did you bother clicking on the link? The Super AMOLED brightness is basically middle of the road. I can find a lot more examples of LCD panels that are way brighter but why bother? It's common knowledge, I guess nobody's clued you in yet. And yes I am a scientist.

P.S. Go over to your local AT&T store, pull out your Note and put it next to the newly released HTC Vivid. Then try to tell me with a straight face that the Note is nearly as bright.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] GALAXYNOTE:
There are tons of lcd out there with higher nit than the note's super-amoled. When it comes to brightness samoled really is nothing to brag about.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rockky:
Android is born to be customized.

The Note.. On Launcher Pro with optimized scrolling speeds on 2.3.6 on Angels Rom and overclocked.... This now is as responsive as my SGS2 at its fiercest!

Btw..ever try scrolling on an Iphone....uuugh.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] maxh:
Hmm... Somehow I missed your link. :o It does show 2 ahead, 1 approx. tied, and the rest behind in brightness. So it's middle of the road and I thought it was great because I was comparing my new Note to all of my old phones. My bad! I still feel justified for giving you flack over saying sAMOLED always has worse whites, less bright, that's a given (suggesting a lot worse than middle of the road) then seemingly supporting it with a single observation. But I hope you know it's all in good fun...

(P.S. I'm also a scientist, but currently pretending to be an engineer. ;))
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DaveC1964:
If all you judge screen quality by is its "brightness" then yes LCDs may win. If you take into account black level, viewing angle, response time, color saturation then LCDs start to litterally pale in comparison. When an LCD is doing white the actuall LCD is off and is just letting the backlight show through so yea it will be as bright as the backlight is.

The problem with LCDs is that their "blacks" are brighter too, MUCH brighter. If you go by the ratio of bright to dark (contrast) OLED tech blows LCD away. Go into a dark room, turn on the iPhone displaying a "black" screen and it will still light up the room.

The fact is that you can turn down an OLED screen's brightness and still have an image with "pop". I don't display the note at max, I often display at 25% or less. It still looks great.

I also have an iPhone 4 still. Other than the resolution, the screen is not that great. It is "ok" and certainly good for LCD, but compared to the Note or SGII, Infuse, etc it doesn't stand out as anything spectacular. My eyes aren't good enough to see such a sharp resolution on such a tiny screen as the iPhone. I can notice contrast and color saturation much more though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] btentusscher:
I think my problem is that because my brain knows (by reading about it) that "pentile" is an inferior technique, compared to the RGB version, I WANT to see the flaws when I look at the screen. Because I know the retina display has the incredible high dpi, I want to see how great it is....... Let's talk psychology here ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Xaddict:
I noticed on a friends iphone4, the email app with a white bg, looked bluish when viewed from the side.

The retina lcd displays by LG on the iphone have a high dot count but look flat and lo-contrast to me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Geekking:
This is the topic which I was thinking to create.. I hope someone will give me an advice to clear my mind...

I had an iPhone 4 (32GB) and I was going to sell and buy a Galaxy Note. I don't know what changed my mind but at that time I wanted to buy iPhone 4S(64GB). Maybe I'm a bit scare to switch the operating system. I had this problem when I sold my HD2 and bought an iPhone 4... I never used an Adroid phone. I can't describe myself as an Applefan boy or IOS lover. The things that I like in iPhone is fast, no stucking, push notification, jailbreaking(I can't jailbreak my 4S at the moment..), adding tweaks from cydia. But I hate it's screen size even though its dpi is better than Galaxy Note.

Display size: 4.49" × 2.81" (11.42cm × 7.13cm) = 284.8 PPI, 0.0892mm dot pitch, 81111 PPI²

Display size: 2.91" × 1.94" (7.4cm × 4.93cm) = 329.65 PPI, 0.0771mm dot pitch, 108669 PPI²

After HD2 I wasn't able to use the iPhone's little screen and I still miss the big screen! I know how Galaxy Note big is but it is not big problem for me because I'm a big guy with a big hands :) (1.90m)

The things that I didn't like in Galaxy Note is the whites but the colors and the big screen display is awesome! Also the main screen scrolling was laggy compared to iPhone 4S. I don't know can I add tweaks to Galaxy Note(to Adroid) like I did with Cydia when I was using iPhone. The thing that I miss so much after my HTC HD2 is to adding new roms to my phone!!

All in all I'm a bit scare to use Android because I don't know the speed and the application quality of this operating system. I always ask myself will I miss my iPhone 4S if I sell and buy the Galaxy Note..

I hope someone will come out and compare these 2 phones and give me advice!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] btentusscher:
Welcome to my world...... I think we have two options: go for it and don't look back or be safe and stay in our comfortzone with the Iphone. Sounds boring though....
